The W.-H has no settled purpose in life ex- cept to oppose whot THis BEE favors, It has ever since its discovery been seek- ing an excuse for antagonizing the pro- posed issue of bonds. As any excuse is better than none, it takes up Major Paddock’s insincere position and an- wounces that unless a maximum bridge bariff is included in the bond proposi- son It will oppose the bonds. POLITICAL COMBINATIONS, ports of combinations to defeat the renomination of President Harrison are still rife, They come from V give them a claim to attention. [t is statod from Washington that ex- Speaker Reed and Senators Teller, Quay and Stewart have gone so far as to prepare an appeal to the republican voters of the countey urging them not to renominate Harrison. A Philadel- phia paper mukes the statement, on the authority of a delegate from that city to the Minneapolis convention, thata combination of politicians unfriendly to tho president is being formed, and that it includos Quay and Cameron of Penn- aylvania, Miller and Platt of New York, the friends of Alger in Michigan, Blaine mon in Maine, and the Colorado sen: tors, There promoters of this nl profor as o prosidential candidate, ov whether it is organized in tho inter of any particular man, It was stated o fow days ago that Secretary Rusk hud been asked to becomo a candidate, but he firmly declined to permit his name to be used in that connection. o is loyal to the president. or Sherman, it was reported recently, had also been discussed as an availablo man, but the senator has several times said that he is not a eandidate, and he knows that his ropublican coustituents in Ohio are very ally favorable to the renomination of the president. Governor MeKinlov has been spoken of as a possible candi- dute, but he has distinetly avowed him- self for Iarrison and will go to Minne- apolis with the purpose Lo earnestly sup- Jort the renomination of the president. Iix-Speaker Reed would not reject the nomination and General Alger may still have a lingering hope that it will como his way. It is quite probable, however, that the opponents of the president have no particular man in view, and that in ovder to defeat the renomination of Har: rison almost anybody would be nccepta- ble to them. They would jeopardize purty success and imperil the public welfaro in order to gratify their por- sonal hostility to the president. The policy of the opponents of the president appears to be to get into the field as many candidates as can be found, trust- ing to prevent nomination on the first ballot and by scattering votes prepare the way for concentration. Can the op- position to the president get togethe It is extremely doubtful, \time the masses of the party con- tinue to manifest 1 hearty desive for the renomination of President IHarrvison. Fourteen states, with a representation in the national convention of 306, have instructed for the president, and sufe estimates from other states give him a suflicient number of delegates to insure nomination on the first hallot by a large majority, assuming that the insuwructions of state and district conventions will be obeyed. The s‘rongest leaders in the party are committed in favor of his venomination. Such being the situ- ation it would seem that no great dangoer is to bo apprehended from tho reported conspiracics to defeat the ovi- dent wish of tho large majority of re- publicans that Bonjamin Harrison shall ain bo the standard bearer of the party. It is havdly possible that tho malcontents will Do able to exert any considerable influence in tho national convention against the well-understood desive of tho great body of republican voter is no intimation as to whom the leged combination gene THE VALUE OF PREPARATIO The senate will undoubtedly insist on a larger appropriation for the construc- tion of war vessels than is provided i the house bill, and a compromise will probably be made by which more than a single cruiser will be added to the navy beforo the meeting of the next congress. A democratic s offered an amendment to the house bill providing for the construction of a battle ship and torpedo boats, and while 1t is not prob- ablo that the recommendations of the sec- vetary of the navy will be fully complied with, there is every reason to expect that congress will go considorably be- yond the promise of the house legislation. That this would be approved by the intelligent judgment of the count there can be no doubt. The gencral sentiment is favorable to the construc- tion of a navy that will bo adoquate for protection and defense, and as such a sufeguurd again r. As was re- coently said on the tloor of the house, in the course of the discussion of this mat- ter, tho truest economy on the part of any nation is not to delay preparation until it is involved in war. It probably will not bo questioned that the fact of the United States being prepared to fight had a very great deal to do with averting war with Chili. We were in a position to send anumber of ships into South Ame waters as an as- surance to the Chilians that we wore both able and ready to enforce our just demands, and tho influence of that demonstration was worth volumos of dip- lomatie corvespondence, Had a similar trouble happened u fow yoars ago the demunds of this government would have been treated with contempt and its ulti- matum scornfully disvegarded. Without a vaval force capable of defending our own ports, to say nothing of threatening the ports of an enemy, we should be compelled to boar whatever insults and injuries were put upon us, cven from such a power as Chili, or take the risk of a costly war when all peaceful ef- forts to securo a just recognition of our rights had failed. Iv is not at all im- probable, also, that our being prepared to defend ourselves had wmore or less to do with preventing a warlike demon- stration on the part of Italy over the New Orleans affair, and our ability to sond a fleet into Beving sea that could sweep British sealors from those waters it is safe to assume was not lost sight of in Lord Salisbury’s consideration of the proposal for renewing the modus vi- vendi, he United States does not require a navy for any aggressive purpose Neither is it desirable to create a navy with a view to rivaling any other power. What is wanted is only such a naval force us will insure the protection of our stor commerce on the seas, the defense of our seaports, o proper respect for our rights in ull lands, and our security and peace. The policy thut was instituted by the re- hington | and other political centers, and bear | such evidences of authenticity as to | " 1 THE OMAIA publican party of giving the country 'nidl the congressional investigating such a navy has been vindlcated by ovents, and the attempt of the demo- crats to have it abandoned when the purpose is not more than half attained will be condemned by the intelligent ovinion of the count —_— THE DEMOCRATIC DILEMMA apparent feom day to day, both from the drift of sentimont manifosted in its conventions and from the tone of its press, that the democratic party is being forced into a position in which it will find itself face to face with a grave problem when the national con- vention meets at Chieago. There ap poars to be o lusty vigor in the Cleve- land o t of the party that was scarcely expectod a fow weeks ago, and it is thrusting itsolf upon tho attention of the country on manner that at least pro stancy of the ex-president’s followers and the vitality of a boom that was started directly upon the heels of defout four years sinco The dilemma into which the demo- cracy is drifting avises chiefly from the complicatod situation in the state of New York. While there is nolonger any probability whatever that Senator Hill will have a formidable foilowir at Chicago, his candidacy, nevertheless, has an important bearing upon tho question of the integrity of the party in New York, which is considered to be of the utmost consequence. Senator Hill’s sw York followers are not to bs de- pended upon with absolute certainty to give an offoctive support to any other candidate, but nothing could bo more certain than that they will not earnestly suprort Mr. Cleveland. ‘Tho Hill men lay great stress upon tho statement that their candidate ean carr his own state, and upon this argumont thoy base all their hopes of success in the convention. They assume that a promise to deliver tha electoral voto of ow York will have great weight, as in- deed it would haveif it were suro of fulfiltment; but no person acquainted with the present tomper of the factions there will place any faith in such a promise. There is a large and powerful clement in the democratic purty of the Empire state whose influence is lhittle felt in the councils of the organization and whose very existence soems to be ignored by the leaders until the rural distriets ure heard from on election day. The town elections in that state this spring, rosulting in the most remarkable series of republican triumphs known there in many years, may fairly be taken as an indication of the attitude of the country democracy toward the policy of Senator Hill and his licutenants. The Cleveland sentiment, weak and timid in e great centersof population, is corre- spondingly strong in the rural com- munities. The problem at Chicago will not lie in the choice between Cleveland and Hill, but rather in the choice bevween Clevo- land and some other candidate wholly free from entangling allinnces with sither. [t is not likely that a selection can be made that will be satisfactory to both factions, and it is to be expeeted hat there will be a sound of the sl ing of knives in the Empire state be- fore the delegates have reached their hoines. It becomes mor Il oceasions in a vos the con- GREATER PUBLICITY DEMANDED, It is no use locking the parn after the horso has been stolen. The fog that envelops the "Squires appropriation for street sweeping ana the issue of o war- rant for the snme ealls for a reform of the slipshod methods that permeate our municipal machinery. Appropriations are bunched and railroaded through the council under suspension of the rule: without even being read and members o on record in favor of jobs and extrav- agent expenditures without even know- ing that they have voted for them. Un- der pretense of economy the appropria- tion ordinances are not given publicity and the taxpayers are kept in ignorance as to where thewr money goes to and how it has been squandered. Tne BEE has time and again called attention to the fact that publicity is the most effective safeguard against job- bery and extravagance in municipal ex- penditur The expense of publishing the appropriation ordinances is a mere trifle when we take into account the check which such publicity would af- ford against lawless raids upon tho treasury or gross mistakes in allowances to contractors and elaimants, Only u few weeks agoan itom of $7,000 was inserted in the appropriation ordi- nance as part payment for the lot adja- cent to the Reed vary site. This amount was taken out of the general fund when it should have been paid out ot the tibrary fund. Munifestly the couneil had no right to ke $7,000 out of the general fund which will ba mc than exhausted in paying for grading and street work. This is, however, only one out of scores of irvogular and unlawful appro- priations engineered through the coun- cil without public notice and kopt from the taxpayers by the nonpublication of appropriation ordinances. We do not contend that the salary list should ba published monthly, although such pub ity at least once in three months would keep the taxpayers informed as to the nimber of ity employes and the ex- pense of running the vavious depurt- ments, The essential thing to provent a re- currenco of the Squires incident would be to require separate appropriation ordinances for each of the departments and separate ordinances for each cons teactor. When the bunching of ap- propriations in one ordinance is done away with and each ordinance is read in full at least once before its passage there will be no oceasion for blind vot- ing and pleading the baby act on the part of councilmen, [n addition to this precaution, every appropriation ordinance, except possinly the monthly salury list, should ba pub- lished in full, and we believe it would be economy to print 100 copies of every ap- propriution ordinance for distribution to councilmen and genoral information of the public before its final pussnge Such printing and publicity would give tax payers a chance to remonstrate before final action is taken by the mayor and couneil.

The right of congress to inquire into the conduct of any executive oiicer of the government ought to bos conceded though the expediency of making such inquiry xcept upon primn facio evidence of some grave offchse against tho laws may bo doubted, Secretary Noble will probably find it necessary to submit the papers in question to the inspection of the committee, THE fedor authorities have insti tuted proccedings at Philadelphia against tho American Sugar Refining company, familiar to the country as tho sugar trust. The action is brought under the anti-trust law enacted by the last congress, and it will afford as com- plete a tost of the act as it is perhaps possible to secure, The Sugar Refining company is organized under the laws of New Jersoy, and claims to bs not a trust, but u corporation of that state, having the right to own property in other states, to trade and manufacture in them, and to engage in interstate commerco. The intent of the anti-trust law is to exclude from interstate trade corporations which eater into combina- tions to monopolize any partof the trade or commerce among the several states or with foseign nations. It would seem to be entirely plain that the law is ap- plicable to the sugar trust, which is un- deniably monopolistic in its purpose. The proceedings in this easo wiil be re- garded with universal interest. The government should next airect its at- tention to the anthracite coal combine, which is quite as much a monopoly as the sugar trust and is perhaps capale of even m ministration to enforce the congress and ¢ y serious exactions, The ad- doing woll in its efforts ct passed by a republican pproved by President Harrison for the supprossion of trusts and i binations, and an attack on the coal combine will still further com- mend its labors in this direction to popular appro¥al.
